To find the approximate number of players who participate in two sports, we first need to find the proportion of players who participate in another sport out of the 60 players surveyed.
5 out of 60 players participate in another sport, so the proportion is 5/60 = 1/12.
Now, we can use this proportion to estimate the number of players who participate in two sports out of the total 280 players in the league:
1/12 x 280 = 23.33
Rounded to the nearest whole number, approximately 23 players in the league participate in two sports.
A basketball league manager surveyed 60 players. 5 of them participate in another sport. If there are 280 players in the league, approximately how many of them participate in two sports? Round your answer to the nearest whole number.
